Kids winter boots

Just over a month ago we bought Theo some winter boots. They were called GT Tex MIKI. For a month we were really happy with the shoes, until Theo decided that he wanted to walk on snow. The shoes worked like ice skates, and he could not stand up on the snow at all! I went back to the shop and complained, cos when shoes can't be used as shoes, you kinda don't have any need for them. The woman behind the counter said "that's just what they're like" and offered me a discount on another pair on top of obviously having to keep the shoes that didn't work! I didn't agree with this, so in the end she said she could call head office the next day. Torkjel went in to see how that went the day after, and without a word she gave him his money back.

A couple of days later I went to a shop and bought him a new pair for 129 kroner. The first pair cost 499 kroner, so had a big saving. And the new shoes are really good, and he can walk on snow with them too :)

My question is, do you agree that when yo pay 499 kroner for a pair of baby winter boots, you should expect your kid to be able to stand up with them?

  1. In buying boots for your kids allow your children to participate in the selection process to make sure they are happy and comfortable with their new boots.
